All Creatures Great On Wall

I have a confession: I'm a complete and total insect-loving mama. I was raised to appreciate the little buggers with wall-to-wall ant farms in my childhood bedroom and fish tanks full of snails in the backyard. Of course this explains why I practically lept from my chair when I saw there was an ant included in National Badger's quirky series of original wall art.

Mother and designer Christine Heinitz has created a vast assortment of animal designs on bold watercolor paper backgrounds, then mounts them on thick plywood. Hang them on your child's bedroom wall alone or in clusters--instant art installation. If you (or your child) isn't an insect person,you're sure to find something you prefer--perhaps an aardvark is more your speed?

Not a lot of wall space? No problem. National Badger's pieces come in sizes great and small, from five inches up to a foot in diameter. Of course I could line an entire wall with just the ants. But that's me.  -Rebecca
